In fact, they did polls with people who knew one rice crispy square was 15% sawdust and the other had none and people couldn’t tell the difference. Even knowing.
It’s at least partially satire, because libertarians oppose the existence of “corporations” (in particular, llcs) in the modern sense. Corporations are antithetical to personal liberty.
I know this is probably a joke, but this recurring joke is dumb. Libertarians disagree with Republicans on like half of political issues, and with Democrats on the other half. I invite anyone who doesn’t believe me to go check the Party platform.
It doesn’t matter how Libertarians think. It matters who they caucus and vote with. They generally vote with Republicans. So their protests are irrelevant.
I don’t know what you mean. The Libertarian Party runs its own candidates. Members of the Party generally vote for those candidates.
During the Cold War before the Party existed and while it was still very young there was an idea called Fusionism that did involve libertarians and conservatives basically forming a truce, since they both saw the Soviet Union as the biggest problem at the time. But that time is over.
My absolute favorite part of this exchange is the number of intellectually dishonest folk downvoting my comment and upvoting yours, as if we disagreed with each other.
Is this real in any way or purely satire?
Not sure about the picture, but the concept is real. The UK had to implement bread standards to prevent this sort of thing.

That’s where food safety regulations in every country come from.
It’s why Americans can’t have kinder surprise eggs.
nah that was because their lobbyist would lose market share.

It’s from this: https://www.somethingawful.com/photoshop-phriday/science-fair/1/
Edit: I guess the sawdust version turned up later, but the original “minorities” version is from that

People have actually done it
That’s a video by B&H Photo, the electronics store. Is it supposed to be about sawdust in food?
It was supposed to be.

That was awesome. They called it wood flour

Libertarians don’t really exist. They’re just embarrassed Republicans.
